Trans-ancestry genome-wide association meta-analysis of prostate cancer identifies new susceptibility loci and informs genetic risk prediction

David V. Conti, +254 more
- 04 Jan 2021 - 
TL;DR: This paper conducted a meta-analysis of prostate cancer genome-wide association studies (107,247 cases and 127,006 controls) and identified 86 new genetic risk variants independently associated with prostate cancer risk, bringing the total to 269 known risk variants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Circulating levels of vitamin D and colon and rectal cancer: the Physicians' Health Study and a meta-analysis of prospective studies.

TL;DR: An inverse association between circulating 25(OH)D levels and colorectal cancer, with a stronger association for rectal cancer is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plasma and Dietary Carotenoids, and the Risk of Prostate Cancer: A Nested Case-Control Study

TL;DR: It is suggested that among younger men, diets rich in β-carotene may also play a protective role in prostate carcinogenesis, and tomato products may exhibit more potent protection against sporadic prostate cancer than those with a stronger familial or hereditary component.
Journal ArticleDOI

Whole grain consumption and risk of colorectal cancer: a population-based cohort of 60 000 women

TL;DR: It is suggested that high consumption of whole grains may decrease the risk of colon cancer in women.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dietary influences of 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D in relation to prostate cancer: a hypothesis.

TL;DR: The hypothesis is that high dairy and meat consumption increase risk of prostate cancer by lowering 1,25(OH)2D, and that diets that are high in calcium, phosphorus, and sulfur-containing amino acids from animal protein, as well as low in fructose, tend to decrease circulating 1, 25(OH]2D.
